About this course
This course gives every learner like you really good foundational stones of what is required to become a professional medium or psychic.  You’ll gain new skills, upgrading your ability, and possibly turning it into a new career should you choose to do so.  

By completing this course, you will gain vital information and knowledge giving you the confidence to start conducting short, accurate, evidential mediumship in-person and on-zoom readings, connecting you to people all around the world.

The Mechanics of Mediumship helps learners like you become a more impactful, professional medium who holds up the banner for spiritual integrity. A medium who works in the light, with compassion and respect for the sitter, the spirit communicator and ultimately those spirit side of life.

I will teach you how to deliver industry ‘best practices’ in both your psychic and in your mediumship work, as well as giving you resources to aid in your spiritual learning and development.  I'll also share guidance so you too can deliver those amazing, accurate, impactful, evidential readings. That will offer hope, love, courage and healing to those you seek you out. And for some you’ll provide the much-needed closure needed in their grief journey, as you provide evidence that life does really continue past this physical death. 

Life like love does not die. It just moves from one dimension to another, and if we take the time, we can connect with loved ones gone before us.

What you will learn.
This course runs over 5 weeks and during our time together we will explore:
1: What mediumship is and the different types, including your role as a professional medium and the differences between working in the psychic modality and when you are connected to spirit. 
2: Activating and building your power within, and the difference between meditation, and attunement both to the spirit world and using your psychic modality.
3: The six different senses available to you, which are your strongest and whether you are perceiving them objectively or subjectively. 
4: What is and what is not evidence in mediumship, understanding the different types of evidence available and defining practical and emotional evidence.
5: Surrendering to spirit, building confidence to receive specific unique information, and understanding the reasons why you receive a no response.  Guidance on making positive, strong, statements filling your sitter with confidence, building a truly extraordinary professional reading.
